Dieselsecret is a scam. They want you to mix some crap in with vegetable oil to thin it out some. It will run, probably very well, in your motor. For a while. How long? Probably not real long without killing your IP. Beyond that, anytime cold VO hits your injectors it doesn't burn completely, causing high amounts of carbon in the cylinder and premature engine wear. Don't give dieselsecret any money, if you really want to just do some mixing go for it. You can just pour the stuff in raw and you'll be ok for a while.

The only way to run vegetable oil without causing premature engine wear is to have a quality, two tank system. Heat the engine up on diesel, and then switch to VO. It needs to be 160 degrees to match the viscocity of diesel.
